The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

With so many of its leaders dead, Hamas is facing a crisis. It is unclear how long the group will be able to maintain itself as Israel continues to kill off its top commanders. However, it should be noted that the group has managed to replenish its numbers, demonstrating that Israel has not produced an effective strategy to destroy the group. Concessions must be made so that a ceasefire can be implemented and hostages are released.

BBC NewsNew York Times

Pro-Israel narrative

Israel has been saying since day one that Hamas uses Gaza's civilian population as human shields as it increasingly converts schools and hospitals into command and control centers. Indeed, Hamas is solely to blame for the destruction of Gaza and its impact on the civilian population, as it started this terrible war with the massacres of Oct. 7. Much like the Sinwar brothers before him, Israel will make quick work of Haddad.

Jerusalem PostJerusalem Post

Pro-Palestine narrative

Israel's spate of assassinations recently only provides further evidence that it is simply not interested in a ceasefire or ending the war. Hamas has consistently proved that it is capable of adapting to challenges, and its structure allows for dynamic leadership. Indeed, Palestinians will continue to resist Israel's genocide regardless of who leads Hamas.
